It seems like I’ve had nothing but bad days lately. First I had the UTI which I got over then for the past week I’ve had what I thought was just indigestion and bloatiness so started taking tums it never got better just got worse…today I was throwing up and I had a sharp pain in my stomach that traveled to my back. I instantly thought it was pancreatitis because I had it before but just got back from urgent care and blood work came back normal…she was still concerned she suggested I see my PCP…ASAP and not to mention my body hurts me. Why is it when you get sick your body hurts 10 times more. Just want to ball up in the fetal position and cry my heart out I can’t take anymore bad days…has anyone else had stomach issues?
Dear Becca, my worst stomach problem was an ulcer from meds, but I have had an inflammed pancreas with a bad GB, that is some serious pain. I cannot speak for others, but I know there are others who suffer stomach/digestive issues. Everything is very specialized now, I went to a digestive disorders Doc, just the nicest man, took good care of me the whole way through.
I send you my best, sorry you have had such a tough run lately! Will be so very glad to hear that you are feeling good!
Hugs to you,
SK
I have alot of stomache issues too, but i think alot of it is medication related, i cant even take ibeprofen without throwing up and stomache pain, but also nerves will cause this too, i know for a fact, hints the prozac too calm me down, i get so tired of being sick all the time my nerves acually make it Alot worse, if your blood work is normall i would talk 2 your doctor about anti anxiety meds and see if that helps you : ) but i will pray for you take care!
Here is a link from the Lupus foundation on the gastrointestinal issues of Lupus. Hope this helps, may need to call the Doc again. Please be safe!

Hello Becca,
I've had that many issues over the years where my stomach as ached one way or another...i've just popped painkillers and hoped for the best but my main issue now with stomach pains is my IBS that drives me mad.
Becca i wondering if you have a chronic flare going on like the one that lifting itself from me because you've got different issue involvements going on and when you get them chronic they seem to drag you down more than just a normal flare...i really do hope the doctor's are able to help and please keep we updated.
My heart goes out to you Becca.
Hugs Terri xxxx
